In early March, several hundred Colorado Republicans gathered online for a tense meeting to air their grievances about finances and fundraising, intra-party lawsuits and current leadership. “Does the membership of the CRC (Colorado Republican State Central Committee) have confidence in the continued leadership of Brita Horn?” asked RNC Committeewoman Christy Fidura, who was presiding at that moment.
An overwhelming majority of the Republicans present said they had no confidence in state party chair Brita Horn. She tried to defend her leadership and actions. The final tally was 63 yes votes to 241 no votes.
“Dumpster fire is the only thing I can think of,” said Raymond Garcia, the chairman of the Colorado Hispanic Republicans, who was active in efforts to remove Horn. “I have never seen the Colorado GOP this messed up. We have no money, no donations, and no one wants to donate and why would they?”
The no-confidence vote led to Horn’s resignation, but the intraparty fracture has been ongoing for years between grassroots conservative members, such as Garcia, and mainstream Republicans, like former GOP state Chair Dick Wadhams, who said Horn was faced with an impossible task of bringing the different factions together. There was also intense infighting under Dave Williams, the controversial GOP chair prior to Horn.“The party is very split,” said Wadhams. “There's still lawsuits flying around. The result is a party that is struggling financially, and the bottom line is that this party will not be able to fulfill some basic functions the rest of this election year.”
